Original Fire lyrics

[Chorus]

The original fire has died and gone but the riot inside moves on

The original fire has died and gone but the riot inside moves on

[Chorus]

The original fire has died and gone but the riot inside moves on

The original fire has died and gone but the riot inside moves on

[Verse 1]

With a pen in one hand, taking a stand, drugged on kerosene

84 and 5 would find us something to believe

Right or wrong with dirty hands on wires

Singing songs in discord choirs

Screaming in Braille

No temptress prize could ever yield anything so real

[Chorus]

The original fire has died and gone but the riot inside moves on

The original fire has died and gone but the riot inside moves on

[Verse 2]

Golden soldiers born much older than they'll ever live to be

Diving into a sea of hands in a long forgotten city

Here the rain falls forever after

And the swinging vines hang dead in rafters

Blood rush to your head induces laughter endlessly

[Chorus]

The original fire has died and gone but the riot inside moves on

The original fire has died and gone but the riot inside moves on

[Bridge]

Can't explain it, it was something to see

Can't contain something ever real, ever real

Ever real

Can't explain it, it was something to see

Can't contain something ever real, ever real

Ever real

[Chorus]

The original fire has died and gone but the riot inside moves on

The original fire has died and gone but the riot inside moves on

[Chorus]

The original fire has died and gone but the riot inside moves on

The original fire has died and gone but the riot inside moves on
